Scenario

When business partners disagree about ethical compromises for profit

My business partners and I started this consulting firm to do work we believed in, but we've slowly taken on clients whose values don't align with ours because we need the revenue, and now we're arguing about whether to fire our biggest client who we think is doing actual harm.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You're facing the classic tension between economic survival and ethical integrity, complicated by the fact that different partners have different risk tolerances and moral red lines.
